"Is there any way to restore power supply in Yanjing City?" Meng Xiaojian asked.

Now it is a big day, and many families in the entire Huanglong Kingdom are celebrating the arrival of the New Year, but in Yanjing City, the capital of Huanglong Kingdom, such a large-scale power outage occurred.

And it is a power outage that is almost impossible to recover.

"Power supply is not scary." Liu Dinggong said Youyou: "What is scary is heating."

"Heating?" Meng Xiaojian did not understand the relationship between heating and Jinghai Laboratory: "Aren't we burn coal to heat?"

"Coal heating has been gradually replaced because of its high energy consumption and high pollution and not environmentally friendly." Liu Dinggong said: "Now the mainstream is natural gas heating, but it also relies heavily on electric heating. Because the ultra-high voltage transmission technology is developed now, it is not unacceptable to use excess electricity from the power grid for heating and heating."

"So what?" Meng Xiaojian did not clarify the relationship.

"Originally, part of the heating in Yanjing City was electric heating, and natural gas heating only accounted for about 40%. After the nuclear fusion operation of Jinghai Laboratory, the generation of power will not be taken into account. Nuclear fusion will generate massive waste heat. Therefore, at the beginning of the design, Jinghai Laboratory laid pipelines for Yanjing City. After all, compared with more sensitive power, heating is relatively safe." Liu Xinggong stared at the screen while explaining to Meng Xiaojian: "But this year is different from previous years. The temperature dropped to this level around the Spring Festival. Whether it is a solar storm or not, such ultra-low temperatures are a huge test for power supply and heating."

"Think about it, the temperature outside is minus 45 degrees Celsius. Although we are in the north, the house is not the kind of insulated house with thick walls. It is just an ordinary thin-skinned house. After all, no one will spend a lot of money to prevent things that will not happen at all. Even if you are cautious, you must have a limit." Liu Dinggong said so much that he kept talking to himself when approaching to relieve his pressure.

But Liu Dinggong didn't say that Meng Xiaojian could think of it himself.

It is minus forty-five degrees Celsius, with thin walls like paper, no electricity or heating, and only a few quilts - you should know that due to the popularity of heating in the north, many northerners now do not have thick quilts at home.

New Year's Eve was originally the most festive day to bid farewell to the old and welcome the new, but how terrible it would be if tens of thousands or even more cold corpses appeared in the entire Yanjing City after tonight.

Especially young people may be better, but the elderly and children can survive such a terrifying dark and cold winter.

"Can we transfer electricity from other places?" Meng Xiaojian asked.

If there is electricity, will everything be much better?

Liu Dinggong shook his head: "Is it the only thing we need to celebrate the New Year in the entire Huanglong Kingdom?"

"Are we the only one in the entire Huanglong Kingdom who needs electricity?"

"There is only one little power that can be generated today, which is not enough. If you take other people's electricity, it will be equivalent to killing others' lives."

"Are people living in Yanjing City born to be more expensive than other places?"

Meng Xiaojian closed his mouth silently.

There is a large amount of diesel in the Power Coordinator Bureau. Driven by diesel generators, there is no problem at least to survive this coldest and most terrible night.

But what about others?

It was snowing outside, and the temperature was so cold that I couldn't get out at all. Everyone could only curl up in their cold bed, trembling, waiting for rescue.

"What should we do?" he asked.

“Is there anything I can help?”

Liu Diangong looked at the darkness outside the window.

said desperately.

"Unless Jinghai Laboratory can be re-operated, there will be no need to find anything in this world that can replace Jinghai Laboratory."

...

...

This New Year's Eve, everyone spent the cold and hope.

But no land is colder than Yanjing City.

The sudden darkness and the slowly drying out heating have forced many people to bring their families to the kitchen, close the doors and windows, and rely on the fire pit in the kitchen to keep warm.

The most primitive one is the most reliable one.

When charcoal, paper, natural gas, and even plastics and furniture start to burn, it can bring real warmth to people.

However, more people are silently taking their lives in their sleep.

After all, the cold is the gentlest and cruelest messenger of all deaths.

...

...

When Lu Yuan saw Sun Hao, he was not surprised at that moment.

For some reason, Lu Yuan always obeyed to exclude Teacher Sun Hao when he was planning.

In fact, he is the one who knows the most about nuclear fusion device. He remembers almost no screw position in his heart. The road is far away and he has to rely on the guidance of the Transportation Commission. Sun Hao may not even need the Transportation Commission and can complete the manual restart of the nuclear fusion device by himself.

And when Lu Yuan saw the heat insulation suit on Sun Hao, he realized that Teacher Sun Hao not only realized that the telex system failed, but also had this manual mechanical transmission system.

He even thought directly that the central chamber that had just finished nuclear fusion had not been cooled yet, and the temperature inside might be as high as hundreds of degrees or even nearly 1,000 degrees. Only wearing heat insulation suits can you enter.

If Lu Yuan was really stupid enough to rush in, he would dehydrate and die within almost ten seconds.

But this did not change Lu Yuan's decision. He picked up the helmet on the ground and said to Professor Sun Hao: "Let me do it."

Sun Hao also looked back at Lu Yuan. He was hunched and thin. He was obviously a northern man of 1.8 meters when he was young, but now he looks only 1.7 meters away, and his weight is barely over 100%.

In his life, he devoted so much to this road that he would devote himself to his whole life and not be overly dying.

"All this is my fault." Sun Hao said softly: "I didn't teach my students well, which led to the evil consequences today."

"But there is still a chance to remedy everything."

"I watched the fusion device be built with my own eyes, and no one is more confident and experienced than me."

"Besides, I'm already old."

Sun Hao reached out to Lu Yuan for his helmet: "So, do me a favor in the end, okay?"

"Put on my clothes."

"Success or failure is here, time is tight and the wind is blowing, so you can only survive with difficulty."

The professor's tone was calm and he had a faint commanding tone.

But the road is far away and there is no movement.

"I'm afraid you will die in it and fail." Lu Yuan said.

“I’m younger and more experienced.”

"So it's better for me to do it."

"What experience do you have?" Sun Hao asked.

Lu Yuan smiled and his tone was calm.

"I will work in nuclear power plants for the next few decades and dream of witnessing the success of human fusion power plants."
